In Avowed, Paradisan Ladder is a crucial, rare upgrade material. This guide outlines five methods to acquire it quickly and efficiently.

Methods for Obtaining Paradisan Ladder:

1. Purchasing from Merilyn: Merilyn, a merchant located in South Paradise (see map below), offers five Paradisan Ladders for 150 coins each. She also sells two items (Many-Hued Doublet and Common Grimoire of Elements) that yield additional Paradisan Ladder when broken down at a workbench. Note: Her inventory doesn't replenish.

2. Foraging: Paradisan Ladder plants appear in the wild and occasionally in cities. Look for the plant icon on your mini-map (see image below). Be aware that other plants may look similar.

3. Side Quests: Several side quests reward Paradisan Ladder. For example, the "Escape Plan" quest provides two units. Completing side quests offers additional benefits like XP and other materials.

4. Item Deconstruction: Disassemble upgraded items containing Paradisan Ladder to recover some of the material. Check merchant inventories for items explicitly mentioning Paradisan Ladder in their breakdown description.

5. Downgrading Hylea's Talon: Once you reach Emerald Stair and obtain Hylea's Talon (a higher-tier material), you can downgrade each Talon into three Paradisan Ladders at your party camp workbench. Select the "Crafting" tab, then switch to the downgrade section. This is useful for quickly upgrading weapons if you change your build.

By utilizing these methods, players can effectively manage their Paradisan Ladder supply and optimize their character builds in Avowed.
